Fire harden your home today

California’s wildfire season is officially in full swing. Fire hardening your home reduces the chance of ignition from direct flames, radiant heat, and stray embers from a wildland fire.

Use this list to survey your home for ember- and fire-resistant upgrades.

WINDOWS can break from heat exposure before the home is aflame.

GARAGES are especially vulnerable as ember and ash can enter as easily as dust.

ROOFS bear the greatest exposure risk to fire embers.

It’s never too late to design a fire-hardening plan. Contact me to discuss more ways to protect your property and its resale value.
